There's more than just buying games incredibly cheap to our DRM-Free Time Machine Sale! We're ready to pass its steering wheel (or rather the control console) to YOU. Each game in the sale is offered for a limited time only, and how long we stay in its year is up to you! Each time you see a new game on sale you can vote to either add or subtract 1 second from the timer. Each time you buy a game, you add 3 seconds to the time of it being on sale. We begin with 1983's Zork, bundled with the rest of the Zork Anthology of 6 games in total, for only $1.79. How long will it last on the front page? You'll be the judge. What comes next, as the game of 1984? Let's find out!

Let's take a trip in GOG.com's DRM-Free Time Machine Sale! 30 great games from 1983-2013 will be available up to 90% off, and you get to decide how long each game is on sale. Ready? The technomagical gateway to 1983 opens NOW!

* "Again?", you might ask, "when did they ever do the time warp?". Well, once you embark on a journey through time, all becomes relevant and there's absolutely no guarantee that what you are doing, you are doing for the first time. In fact, that's highly improbable. After all, time isn't linear. It's more like a giant wobbly-bobbly goggy-boggy ball of gaming awesome!

BRILLIANT!

Adding that +1/-1 second to the timer was truly an inspiration. No more ten-hour marathons of Jack Keane!

Now, all that remains is for me to spend my money irresponsibly. That's going to be a challenge considering I already own most of the titles on GOG. )

Wave your money in the air
Like you just don't care!

Bought another copy to help the immortal Might and Magic to stay forever.

*evil laughing*
Better with plus/minus 10 secs instead so we can remove all the garbage entries quicker...
The most pressing question remains. Does Jack Keane have the largest e-peen?

So we know if King's Quest 4-6 will be included in this sale?

Someone's garbage is another's pot-o-gold ;)

stg83: Q: If I buy a time machine from someone, can I then use that time machine to go back in time and stop the person from inventing a time machine? Would I then have the only time machine or no time machine, effectively getting stuck in time?

Enebias: There are different possible outcomes:

1- Preventing the creation of the time machine is impossible, because you could have not travelled back in time without the dedicated object. Hence you would probably be erased by a sort of "time autocorrection", effectively annihilating yourself;
2- Time loop: if you destroy the plans for the time machine, you instantly lose the mean to do so, probably disappearing. In that case, time carries on until your other self of years later travels back in time again only to fail at the last moment and allow the cycle to repeat.
3- As Doc Brown teaches, the entire universe is destroyed. A hole in time can suck anything into an abyss of nothingness. You would effectively disintegrate the entire connective tissue of reality.
4- You could find yourself in a parallel universe do to impossibility of points 1 and 2. That would be convenient, because you and your machine would be uneffected by any kind of paradox, actually living in an identical universe but sharing no connections.

I know, I'm a genius. :)
A much better answer than I expected.

Purely specualation. Ultima 4+5+6 is also possible for 1988.
UNHINGED MELODY

So, how did your intellect fare against the plot of Primer?
*strangles every person who mentions Keane...*
Fine promotion, but when are we finally completing the Half-Life collection? We are missing Season 4 Episode 5, and the "Half-Life Chronicles" spin-offs! Fair enough, they are old and a bit clunky nowadays, but they are part of gaming history! And GOG is my only hope to find these old gems since Volvo went bankrupt decades ago...

Well, I can always play The Witcher: Geralt the Geezer Google Glass Edition... Again...
The Might and Magic 6 Pack is also unavailable on Steam, so anyone who is interested in X: Legacy have to come here to get it.
